Learning to Brush Our Teeth

We've been working on learning to brush our teeth.  Layla loves to run her toothbrush under the water and "eat" the toothpaste off the toothbrush, but having a little difficulty getting her to acutally brush her teeth!!  This is good practice as she grows, though.  Every time the bathroom door is open, she thinks its time to brush her teeth.  The pictures are from the 1st time we attempted brushing our teeth!

The Many Faces of Layla

Layla's personality has really started coming out over the last few months.  She loves to laugh and make many, many different faces.  She's such as happy child!  We tried to capture a few of the MANY facial expressions that we see in a day.

Look, mommy I have a tongue!



AAAHHHH!!!

Daddy, you are too funny!


I'm cute....and I know it!

Christmas in KY

We went to KY early in November as I had to be on call for Thanksgiving. Layla got to enjoy Christmas a little early!! She still isn't quite sure about what she is supposed to do with the presents and would open them and then forget that the present inside was for her! She enjoyed playing with Kenzi and Haley very much though!

Merry Christmas and Happy 18 Months


We took Layla's pictures at home again this year since we weren't sure how well she would do if we took her somewhere. She did a great job and seemed to really enjoy having her picture taken as you can tell!




This month she has also turned 18 months..Where has the time gone? Looking back at the pictures from the past year, our little girl has gone from a "baby" to a "toddler". She seems to be growing up too fast!! At 18 months she:



  • Likes to feed herself. She will eat pretty much anything you give her including guacamole!


  • She is in some 18 months closes although some of the 12 months clothes still fit!


  • Has several words: outside, all gone, doggie, momma, da da, thank you, no, cheese.


  • Signs several different words such as: please, milk, eat, more.


  • Loves to be outside and on of her favorite words is "go".


  • Hasn't really attached herself to any one object or toy. She can take or leave them.


  • Loves Mickey Mouse and the movie Tangled.


  • Is starting to try to go to the potty!


  • Wants her way....all the time!
























Happy 18 months, Layla! You have brought such joy to us over the last year and a half and can't imagine our lives without you!

Layla the Strawberry

I'm almost a month late posting pictures from Halloween. We had a ball dressing her up this year. She wasn't real sure about the outfit at first but once she had it on, she wasn't happy to have to take it off!! We didn't take her anywhere to get any candy, but did let her dress up for pictures and let her play outside for a little bit with her outfit. She seemed to really have a good time!
